An interesting relationship exists between RFID technology and ID cards. Individually, each of them functions excellently, but their combined efficiency is way better. This is evident from the fact that the best ID card available is vulnerable to forgery, whereas a RFID card has several security options.
A lost or stolen plastic ID card can be easily tracked if it is equipped with RFID technology. Although this track back feature may not lead to the person who actually stole the card but it may lead to the card itself. Henceforth after recovering the card the damages can be reversed.
The scanning and processing of information of RFID technology equipped ID cards with readers is far easier and simpler. This is because the strongest of these readers can scan information from a distance of thirty meters or more. This spares the odious task of going through a physical reader and facilitates people to use the system more efficiently.
This is applicable in large work areas like schools where the number of people is more. All you need to do is wave the ID card near the reader and move on. This hastens the entire procedure. Apart from work and school the RFID technology can be used in several other ways.
The ID card and an RFID system combined can be very used effectively in traffic crossing tolls on bridges. An ID card embedded with an RFID chip could be used as a prepaid toll card. Then the driver can simply drive up to the reader and flash the card and drive away. This would require the driver to just slow down the car and spare him from fumbling for change.
Already, the RFID tags, minus the ID cards, are used in the Bay Area as an optional method for payment for the traffic crossing the Golden Gate Bridge. This tag is called “FasTrak” and it is mounted on the window. “FasTrak” operates on a prepaid system; hence the car only has to slow down near the prepaid toll booth while the reader scans it and then drive away.
There are several areas where the combination of the ID cards and RFID technology can be effectively used. Their combined use is increasing day by day and this signifies that people using this technology in their work, school and other environments are better protected.
